Oi!

Yo, Freddy! :3

Seme and mahself wanted to leave a comment here sooner, but we didn't get to do so, cause we have been floatin' around lots of places cause Seme got a new job and we had to meet lots of people and get lots of documents together.

As for the wiki farm, the followin' stuff has been prepared:


 * 1) Main hub wiki for the Super wiki farm
 * 2) * Includes info pages on various wiki stuff (including stuff about bots, disclaimers and rules), most templates and extensions (and testing these to make sure they work fine and snazzy), as well as most user profiles, the video archives and some dummy pages (see more below)
 * 3) ** As dummy pages for testing stuff like tabbers, we used the Zenki and Chiaki pages
 * 4) ** And as for our new infoboxes, Seme made her own infoboxes from scratch, cause we couldn't reuse the ones present here due to the coding being scattered all over the place, which would make reusing them a lot more difficult than making new ones. Seme also used stuff like the character and video infoboxes from KDZ Wikia as a base for these and for comparision so she could make sure, that stuff worked as intented.
 * 5) User rights
 * 6) * Done and adjusted for safety, so only logged in users can edit stuff and people need to contact us to have an account made, so no strangers can mess up anything
 * 7) File lists
 * 8) * Done (also added files to our server, that didn't have a backup yet)
 * 9) User profiles
 * 10) * Mostly done, but a handful are still missing
 * 11) Video archives
 * 12) * Mostly done, but we need to rearrange the site a bit due to our new video template and update some stuff regarding that template with new knowledge from Seme's latest notes
 * 13) Wiki dumps
 * 14) * Made new ones, so they are now all from May 1, 2019
 * 15) Testing stuff and taking notes
 * 16) * More thoughts about how we get the thing with an actual wiki farm to get going (every wiki will be its own wiki like it used to be here)
 * 17) * Doing test imports of the wiki dumps to make sure they all work (of cause, the wikis don't have all the extensions needed, cause these are seperate from the dumps and need to be refound and reinstalled by us, causing stuff like comments being their own pages - normally some extension would arrange them as seen here, but if you don't have that extension, then comments are subpages to a blank thread page), but all our stuff (except for the files) has been saved and is fine. We even have our userpages, but they don't have the headers as seen here, but Seme and mahself manually made backups of the headers as well and tested our new headers over at our new main hub for the Super wiki farm, where they worked fine and snazzy :3
 * 18) Uh... Oh, right!
 * 19) * We don't need to update the file descriptions changed in-between dumps anymore, cause they are already included in the new wiki dumps (we updated some stuff, where we found grammar mistakes, but Seme said, that there will be some stuff that still needs to be updated cause of translation updates, which we talked about in some older mixed talks - don't ask me which ones, I dunno, but I remember, that Gokimaru and mahself, dunno who else was there, were talking about some new naming stuff and translation related thingies at some point around the time back when the whole forums were changed into discussions)
 * 20) Themes and Forums
 * 21) * Seme made some screenshots, so we could reapply the colors to our wikis later in some way with a different theme extension, than the one, that broke the preferences page earlier
 * 22) * At first, Seme asked Gokimaru to make a new alternate forum, but then I found a theme extension, so we probably won't need an alternate forum after all and will have a proper forum again

I dunno what else I should talk about, cause that's already lots of stuff, but I'm sure, there's more things than those, that only Seme knows off or that I have forgotten and will remember later.

Also, dunno how Seme's new job will affect things, as I won't be able to get thingies done as fast a she can, cause only she knows the coding stuff behind the new wiki farm, even if she did leave lots of notes around, so finding out what do take care of next shouldn't be too complicated.

According to Seme, she wanted to work on getting the rest of the user profiles backed up and go fixing and updating some templates next before we look after more extensions.

We found out, that before we add the latest wiki dumps, we should get all those templates and extensions running at our new main hub first, cause it will serve as a base for all the other wikis, which will also use the templates and extensions and will build onto its structure.

Once we are done testing and adjusting stuff to our new templates, we will also remove the dummy pages, cause otherwise they will only be duplicates to the corresponding pages from the wiki dumps (after adjusting those as well) and won't be needed anymore.

Whoa! Usually, it's Seme doin' the walls of text, I know.

But we wanted to give an update and Seme is way too tired from floating around everywhere and had to rest for a bit, so I decided to take matters into mah hands after seeing ya comment. :3

This also reminds me, that I should leave and update over at the other wikis as well, cause otherwise they will be left hangin' and we can't do that.

See ya! :3
